EBSCOHost account and folder changes

EBSCOHost products have transitioned to OpenAthens, and the UGA Libraries’ login system will automatically link an EBSCOHost account to your MyID. When you sign into any EBSCO database or multi-search after Tuesday, Dec. 21, you will see folders for your new UGA EBSCOHost account. If you previously set up an individual My EBSCOHost account, choose “switch accounts” to log into your older account.

The first time you log in, you will be asked to consent to the EBSCO personal data retention and usage policy. This is the same policy that governs your older EBSCO account.

Merging folders and accounts

After Tuesday, Dec. 21, you will be able to merge your older account with the new UGA one to avoid having to log in separately to EBSCO. You may also keep the two accounts separate. Please view these step-by-step instructions for help.

If you have any questions, please contact the UGA Libraries.
